Tech Europe: 10 Cities in 20 Days

If you are an entrepreneur, angel, VC, or someone involved in European technology, Tech Europe wants to talk to you—and more importantly, meet you.

The Wall Street Journal Europe is about to embark on a grand tour of 10 of the leading tech centers in Europe to take the temperature of the continent and talk to the hottest start-ups in the coolest places.

It is a year since Tech Europe started reporting on the European technology scene. Since then we have seen two multibillion European exits as well as scores of smaller deals. It seems the ideal time to get a sense of what is happening across the continent.

The tour starts on Sept. 10 in Tel Aviv (we take a Eurovision Song Contest view of Europe) and ends on Sept. 30 in Dublin.

We need your help

Below is a list of the 10 cities I will be visiting and the dates. In each city, I will hold a meet-up that evening for anyone who wants to talk about their start-up, their investments, their job or what makes their city a tech center. All I ask is that you sign up to the GroupSpaces event (below) so I know how many people are coming. Any help in suggesting venues would be appreciated; after all, you will know the right places. I am @benjrooney on Twitter.

This is your chance to talk to The Wall Street Journal Europe and to our readers; and it is my chance to hear from you and to find the most innovative cities in Europe and the most innovative technologies.

Entrepreneurs in cities not listed should not be put off; I hope to be able to visit other cities at a later date. London may seem to be missing from this list, but as The Wall Street Journal Europe is based here, we already cover it extensively.

So please come along and tell us about your plans, your thoughts, anything really. I am hugely excited by this and by the opportunity to show off the best of Europe’s talent.
